well i personally feel that art and design are not really a unison, in a sense that design is actually part of the BIG tree called ART
and art, as the big tree, the big umbrella, obviously in making design project, we need context to establish certain idea, and i feel that in creating any design project, someone must have particular context to build the final design
as for me, regardless of what kind of project i am doing, either it's purely art for the sake of my own pleasure or doing it as a commission, or commercial design project, i always tell myself to do anything by heart
there is no way i would want to do any project carelessly or anyhow do
since i have my own state of pleasure in doing something good which leads to good result
even though honestly speaking, doing something for commercial use is still pro and con in my dictionary
why is so?
first of all usually commercial project is ruled by certain obligations bla bla bla that restrict the boundary of ideas
moreover, commercial projects is to fulfill certain group of people who want to fill their egos, in a sense that we, as the creator or the maker of the project, must be able to accomplish it as the goal
commercial ≠ freedom
even if the person in charge tells you to do whatever you want to do
believe me in the end you'll end up in following orders
it's not as free as you think it is
but let's see it from different POV
it doesn't matter whether it's commercial or any other projects
whether we are restricted by rules or free
when we are into the work, when we are doing it with all heart (and soul :p)
i believe when we are doing it, we are completely in different realm, so called OUR OWN WORLD (or dimension or whatsoever)
we are totally enjoying what we are doing as long as it is from the heart
YES, for sometimes i do feel tired or lazy to do it
but once i dip myself into the work, miraculously everything goes well and smooth
i enjoy doing it
YES, for most of the time i am tired with oh-so-you-know-everything-then-why-do-you-ask-me-to-do-it person in charge, that sometimes really knows nothing about composition or color combination or whatever they can mess with
YES, for sometimes the paycheck isn't as good as the mind heart soul time energy we put into it
YES, for sometimes the brain malfunction in not the right time
YES, for sometimes i go crazy in trying so hard to enjoy it but sometimes i fail
BUT!!!!!!
let's relax and try to enjoy every little details
whether it sucks or not
whether it's annoying or not
life's once
why bother hating it all the time
why bother complaining every single thing
we often, I OFTEN regret things i didn't do than things i've done
so let's go crazy and escape the box
no more restrict ourselves in hatred and complaints
then believe that the work you do is going to bring some goodness
it is either for yourself or for other people or for everybody to enjoy it
happy monday! (:
art rules!
ARTIST rules! :p
